Nandankanan Zoological Park
Beste tijd om te bezoeken
Visit between October and March when the weather is cool and pleasant for walking the sprawling grounds. Early mornings right after opening at 7:30 AM offer the best chance to see animals active before the heat sets in.
Budgettips
Entry costs just ₹40 for Indians and ₹500 for foreigners, with a combined zoo-botanical garden ticket saving you ₹30. The zoo is closed on Mondays, so plan accordingly.

Over
Korte feiten: Home to over 1,340 birds, mammals, and reptiles across 437 hectares, this is one of India's largest open-air zoos. It also houses a botanical garden and a lake that draws migratory birds like pintails and pochards each winter.
Hoogtepunten: White tigers were first discovered in the wild here in 1951, and the zoo still runs a highly successful conservation breeding program for them. You can watch these ghostly pale cats stalk through lush enclosures that mimic their natural forest habitat, a sight found almost nowhere else.
